Visually seeing a circuit perform along with a description of operation can increase the comprehension of a particular component’s operation and its function within the circuit.

These animated presentations can be used by:

• Instructors to assist in Pneumatic Specialist (PS) Certification review training
• Individuals to enhance their preparation to take the PS Certification test.
• Anyone interested learning component function and circuit operation

A BIT OF BACKGROUND

The circuit schematics found in the IFPS PS Certification Study Manual are designed to illustrate an operational or theoretical Pneumatic system showing the interaction of components to achieve a desired output.

The PS Certification Study Manual is not designed as a teaching document but rather a means of reviewing or reinforcing concepts to a certification test candidate and cannot possibly cover every application of a component within a Pneumatic circuit.  Subject matter experts developed the circuits in the Study Manual that are intended to represent a specific application or the use of a component within a circuit to illustrate the typical usage.  These have been placed in the Study Manual to facilitate a review of their operation and function.

IN THIS PC PACKAGE

Color-coded animated .mp4 and .wmv files of each circuit operation using ANSI recognized color designations. Each circuit shows the sequence of operations within the Pneumatic circuit as well as the flow paths during operation.

Key bullet points for each circuit from the PS Certification Study Manual to assist in the understanding of the components’ function and interaction within the circuit.
